Tandem Learning Values Multiple Lenses

NEURODIVERSITY AFFIRMING
It is important to us that brains of all kinds are welcome here.  Whether you identify as having ADHD, giftedness, anxiety, dyslexia, autism or any other neurodivergent quality or diagnosis, we hope to meet you in your learning style.  Please let us know if there is anything we are missing.
PRO SOCIAL JUSTICE
To truly learn to be socially and emotionally aware we also need to evaluate and change the biases and inequities ingrained in our society.  As three white women, we are aware we have blind spots.  We are committed to working (often imperfectly) towards building a more just world.
TRAUMA INFORMED
We know that talking about our feelings can bring up old wounds and we aim to present content in ways that recognize potential areas of trauma. 

We can also support you in getting access to more therapeutic help should that need arise.

Words I live by

"Diversity is about all of us and about us having to figure out how to walk through this world together."

~ Jacqueline Woodson

“My experience is that workshops with Michele are rich with useful information, actionable ideas and a tone that is easygoing and encouraging. Michele has a way of developing compassion within the group while really digging in to some of the deeper aspects of our work. Whether it is strategies for more effective communication, navigating strong emotions in the classroom or exploring responsive curriculum approaches, I leave her trainings inspired with new tools and renewed confidence in my ongoing practice. I really can’t recommend her enough, she is an exceptional trainer in every way.” 
-KM, Educator
"Christy has a unique ability to support my process of deepening my understanding of myself. She holds space for all of the emotions that arise and meets them non-judgmentally. She has taught me invaluable skills and held space for me to grow. All while continually giving me permission that I get to be myself. Christy models authenticity and compassion. She is a joy to work with." 
— HC, Parent & School Director
“I feel heard and validated in... workshops. She presents information in a clear way that is not overwhelming, yet challenges and expands my understanding. I always leave the discussion feeling energized and wanting to try some different, more informed approaches or strategies, using the new perspective I have gained.”
